Best running experience:
Any trail race or run. Single track with obstacles is the best!

Any flat pavement races - BORING! LOL Oh and this one time a guy yelled "Don't worry, he's friendly" about his dog right before it jumped on me and knocked me down.

People on single track with large dogs that don't understand why it's frustrating to have to stop a run for their dog.
